Hangover sets in at half past five
and I lay awake wondering
how I fell this far...
I remember the blue of the sky
reflecting the blue of the ocean
as you and I stood in awe-
do you remember what we destroyed?
I drank a little too much last night
and then thought a little
about all the missed opportunities
I've had to be free of this complication.
Morning came again
and I still did not forget you.
She would never come to terms with me-
or with how I came to this end.
I think the two of you would get along,
bashing me for my indecision
and my spiteful finality.
but would either of you understand?
This endeavor
is as fruitless
as growing apples in a desert
and everything I have to say about you
is greeted by ignorance and boredom.
You don't amuse me anymore,
there is no time left
for stupid games and malcontent...
I am ready to make clear
why I have chosen this place-
why I have chosen you...
I am ready to make clear
why I am here at all...
